We could make a 3 cossies convoy if you want.... and she'll be put in the middle one... with one at the front and one at the rear... we could also put little flags on the mirrors if you insist.....

Pete,

Just realised I am working late, so could only be greg, now, if a few locals were keen to join in, it could be one hell of a convoy

look in the autotrader and se the roll's beiong for sale and offer one of them 100 quid to drive her to the prom

there was a local nighbour before that had a rolls and was retired, i used to pay him 30 quid to pick me and a mate up and drive to the pub and collect us

was extra cash for him plus he got out the house, hes since died though and his son robbed the car and his house

6 years ago and ya would be laughing

I remember when people kept asking my sister what car she was going to her prom in - her response was a Salford Limo (old manchester police nickname for saph cos's)

... wasn't quite what they were expecting when she stepped out of a moonstone Saph but got more attention than anyone else
